stuff.co.nz APRIL 7, 2016, CHRISTCHURCH MAIL FOCUSONNEWBRIGHTON Kitchens key to creating homes with heart ADVERTISING FEATURE As the hub of a home, kitchens are one of the most important areas to get right. Depending on design, meal preparation can be a social experience or an isolating one, snacks can be quick and easy or a hassle to arrange, and use of materials can either bring modernity and flow to a home or jar badly with existing features. For many years Bower Kitchens & Tops has been helping customers navigate such kitchen considerations. Owner Russell Lloyd says the company can provide almost any option on the market for kitchens, with clients able to choose from hundreds of different finishes. For those unsure where to begin, Bower Kitchens & Tops can discuss material and colour choices, the placement of cupboards, and talk clients through enhancements like soft-closing drawers or integrated lighting. ‘‘We also do replacement cupboard doors and bench tops for people who want to upgrade an existing kitchen,’’ Russell says. ‘‘We’re a one-stop shop for Anewly finished kitchen at Pegasus Town made by Bower Kitchens&Tops combines high-grade materials with a functional design and a luxury finish. customers. We try to make the process as easy as possible.’’ With more than 40 years’ experience producing high-grade joinery, the team at Bower Kitchens & Tops, in addition to kitchens, also makes and installs wooden window frames, sashes, staircases and wardrobe parts. The company’s laminated bench tops can also be fitted in laundries or bathrooms, allowing for a cohesive theme to be created through much of a home. A showroom on Bower Ave, New Brighton, offers customers a glimpse at the various designs and products. However, it is the experience behind the scenes that ultimately ensures customers get the fantastic kitchen they hoped for. All tradesmen at the company are fully qualified and Bower Kitchens & Tops has long been on the register of New Zealand Master Joiners. ‘‘We have experience in all types of home,’’ Russell says. ‘‘We do a lot of work on new properties but also places where renovations are being done and the owners want a nice kitchen to match.’’ Formed in 1990 when Russell merged his joinery business with another local firm producing bench tops, Bower Kitchens & Tops has gone on to develop a reputation for competitive pricing and quality work.
